Our understanding of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs), their exposure pathways, and their impact on the environment and human health is constantly evolving and the list of new and emerging POPs is constantly changing. This book provides a comprehensive coverage of new and old hazardous chemicals, their physical and chemical properties, their breakdown products, their fate in the environment, and the environmental and human risk impact. It discusses global policies based on United Nationsâ FAO frameworks, explains the severity of contamination, and raises awareness on the assessment and remediation of contaminated sites in developed and developing countries.
